March Madness has cooled slightly in Detroit to mere impetuosity when it comes to resale ticket prices for games beginning Friday at Little Caesars Arena.

That's even with Michigan State University as functionally a home team at the Detroit arena.

The current average price for tickets on the secondary market for the NCAA men's basketball tournament games in Detroit is $235, with cheapest ticket at $60 as of Thursday morning. That's down from an average of $273 and with a cheap, or get-in, price of $88 on Monday.

The ticket price data is from New York City-based TicketIQ, which aggregates ticket resale data via hundreds of secondary-market sellers, including Primesport.com, the official resale marketplace of the NCAA tournament.

It wasn't immediately clear why resale prices dropped.

Tickets are grouped into sessions of two games each. The Michigan State Spartans, who play Bucknell University on Friday evening, are grouped into the second session along with the Texas Christian University vs. Syracuse University game later that night.

On Primesport, tickets for the MSU-Bucknell/TCU-Syracause session ranged in price from $170 to $510. Sunday's third session, pitting the winners of the first two sessions, ranged on Primesport from $167.50 to $637.50.

The all-session tickets were sold out on Primesport as of Wednesday morning.

Face-value tickets were initially sold by the NCAA and arena operator 313Presents last year, and the remainder were sold through Ticketmaster. Others were distributed by the schools.
